"The courts have consistently determined that the Second Amendment does not ensure each individual the right to bear arms," it purportedly reads. "The courts have never found a law regulating the private ownership of weapons unconstitutional."

They are wrong on both counts. The recent Heller decision clearly indicated that people have the right to bear arms, and there was a SCOTUS case from the early 50's that ruled that the term "militia" refered to "every able bodied man" and went on to say "are required to come with weapons in common use".

United States v. Miller 1958
The Court also looked to historical sources to explain the meaning of "militia" as set down by the authors of the Constitution:
"The significance attributed to the term Militia appears from the debates in the Convention, the history and legislation of Colonies and States, and the writings of approved commentators. These show plainly enough that the Militia comprised all males physically capable of acting in concert for the common defense. 'A body of citizens enrolled for military discipline.' And further, that ordinarily when called for service these men were expected to appear bearing arms supplied by themselves and of the kind in common use at the time."

First thing I would do is pull my child out of that school and then file formal charfes against the teacher and the school board in Court, for allowing a teacher to teach her own personal views, instead of what is indeed a fact! Its obvious that if the teacher is teaching his or her own style of garabage and views instead of what is the truth , this teacher should not be teaching children. Hell I wouldnt even allow this idoit to show a new employee in any other job what to do, these are the very same type of people that are in in our goverment today. Instead of punishing the guilty, they punish the innocent, when a cowardly scumbag blows his head off instead of taking his or her punishmenet.when the commit such a henious crime. Personally Im tired of these anti gun morons in public office and in general. I have went as far to only do bussiness with companies that I know of personally who believes in the second amendment rights, In the next upcomming elections anyone who has voted for this stupid gun-control bullshit will not get my vote and I will do everything I can to discourage other from voting for them. I have written both US Senators here and have informed them of my intentions to discourage uninformed voters of exactily what my intentions are. and I also have several copies one with my attorney, one with a very close friend & former commrad in arms, and several being held by somewhat importiant indivudals. And I have also informed the Senators here as well that they do not care about thier constituants as thier actions clearly show, they are just in the job for the money and the power. And let it be known that the only thing that can be considered a threat is that I am going to find a qualfied canadate to run if one dose not come out on thier own. to which I have that right. The one Senator heres only concern is Boing Aircraft and I did this and I did that! its time for her to go. In my opinion shes not even qualifed to flip burgers at a fast food joint. And another thing to keep in mind. In the Event this BS with North Korea, and any other war mongering country. If in fact ther United States Was to get a conflict declaired a World War as In WWlll ! Who do you think they are going to call up. the trops we already have are tired and who can blame them! 3-4 tours in a war zone is a bit much and why are our brothers and sisters doing so long of a hitch? Its simple the United States Military recruitments are way off. We have way to many wounded & permantily disabled Veterans out there who can no longer preform the job as a grunt or in combat support due to the sacrifices that they have already made, and For You Men and Women who are on this forum who have served THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR SERVICE! I WILL NOT FORGET THOSE i HAVE MET THAT HAVE SERVED NOT WILL I EVER FORGET THOSE I SERVED WITH! AND THE SACRIFICES THAT THEY MADE. AND MORE THAN ANYTHING, WHAT REQALLY PISSES ME OFF. is i WOULD LIKE ONE QUESTION ANSWERED WHAT IS BEING DONE .OTHER THAN NOT A GOD-DAMMED THNG ABOUT OUR MISSING P.O.W.S espically those that were taken from Vietnam and Korea and majically made it across the lines to camps located in China ( as I was informed of this by A UNITED STATES MARINE
whom was much older than I and this person was a guest of the chineese for a brief time before escaping his captors. My Friends I have No Idea what has happened to this country, but I can guerentee you its not for the better.After hearing all thsi bs about gun control I have made up my nind in one direction, If you are a politican and truly believe in the United States Constituation and the Bill of Rights you will have my unwavering support, for thiose whom are against it ands wish to make up the rules as they go, will have my support in doing everything I can legally with in my power to get the other person elected, and who ever dose get elected and if they go to the dumocratic side I will start proceedures and petitons to have them resign.Thes dumb ass political representives are playing with peoples lives, they dont have to look at the wounded families, the loss and fear plainly seen on thier face. Now is the time to stand up against these tyrants and get them the fuck out of office and by no means ever let them back in.This morning I called the Republican Speaker of the Houses Officer in Washington DC and Voice My opinion and suprisingly enough "I didnt swear of loose my temper lol) But I hade an aprox 40 min converstaion with his office , and spoke with him regaurding the current gun control and how the democrats lie. Somehow I have gotten myself into a special upcomming special Sen Election, to which I will be helping the republican party, for the good of us and what we believe in. As I sopke to the representive, he assured me that all washington republican representives has denounced and will not approve or agree with the democrats bill on the second amendment, to make stronger background checks, and they oppose the magizine ban, as well as all the other crap that the democrats are preposing. I am at the point now I dont care if it takes my last breath. my plan is to shame the democratic party and stick these anit gun nits and those whom wish to prevert the United States Constituation for thier own political adjunda! Im sure there will be more to come on this stay tuned!!!!!,,,,Doc

Rikoshay.. With the present administration, every day they are not reading the Constitution..
I grew up in Connecticut and Florida.. Still own a home up there.. Not just Ct. but a lot of the blue states.. They are self destructing in their rush too Socialism.
I listened to this Piers Morgan guy for a bit last night. Discussion on weapons issues.. The guy is nuts, just plain friggen insane.. No meat to his argument.
It is insane people like him who are trying to change the agenda..
Ct., once a thriving wealthy state, is about to loose $1.7 billion in much needed tax and labor revenue, with their anti gun philosophy..
The lines of pro and anti weapon people and states are reaching frighting levels..
Again. The American Revolution did not start over taxes. Shots were only fired, when they came to take the peoples guns.. I pray they are reading their history books?

"Man needs but two things to survive alone in the woods. A blow up female doll and his trusty old AK-47" - Thomas Jefferson 1781

Public schools generally inflict extreme liberal propaganda on their victims. And they will outright lie if it suits their agenda.

Back in the 1960s, in the state of California, we learned that the Pilgrims discovered America, and that John Glenn was the first man in space. Yuri Gagarin would probably have been surprised... that's aside from "group work, group grades" classes and sociology/geography texts that might as well have come from some alternate universe.
